This whole Ice Age movie franchise is stuff for kids and new movie from this franchise is coming in July 2009 (with dinosaurs this time!), so movie studios decided to promote it by releasing FREE game for iPhone and iPod touch!
We have tested it and while it is a rather simple skate boarding game where you should pick objects while skateboarding, it has nice 3D feeling to it and here is how it looks like:
Due to work and family commitments, (about to become a Dad) we are taking a few weeks out from the podcast but we will be back soon. We will also have new intro music thanks to Gareth’s hard work.
The podcast has really taken off and we just wanted to thank you all for downloading it and listening each week, it’s always a lot of fun to do each week.
As a reminder you can subscribe via iTunes, or RSS right here and follow us on twitter too for the latest mobile news as it breaks.
The long awaited successor to the MDA Mail, HTC S620 or T-Mobile Dash is here and we have put it through it’s paces over the last week. Now can it live up to it’s popular predecessor with added features like 3G and and Inner Circle, read on.
Even though O2 are the official network for the iPhone in the UK, it has been left up to The Carphone Warehouse to step up and offer buyers the chance to pre-order the iPhone 3G S and avoid waiting in queues. What is even better they are guaranteeing delivery on launch day to your home.
Now why can O2 not offer this service, they say that as launch day is so close to the announcement there was no time, more like they couldn’t be bothered and prefer the publicity that people queuing outside their shops would bring.
You can find all the details right here.

Texting (i.e. sending of SMS messages) is undergoing constant evolution. It is the engine that powers Twitter (sending to Twitter possible over SMS in many countries receiving in few)… and latest craze is sexting – that in some prude countries is perceived as forbidden fruit.
However in all forms of texting having ability to use abbreviations is very crucial, not just because of text message limitations (160 in SMS, 140 in Twitter) but also simply because people are lazy (not that there is anything wrong with that).
TUTD: The Ultimate Texting Dictionary – that has been released in app store today, comes to the rescue of texters:

We know that Intel’s Moorestown chip is better than the Intel Atom netbooks are currently using now, but what if we tell you the 45nm Moorestown processor is built with MIDs in mind and that a company called Elektrobit has fashioned a MID with iPhonesque form factor and a UI of incredible charm?
Nitrogen makes audio playback a bit of a doddle on Windows Mobile. Having used Nitrogen for the last few months I feel it appropriate to hail it possibly the finest music playing software on Windows Mobile. It’s stable, finger friendly, developed by people who know what is wanted and … what’s that? Free!?!

Our friends over at last100 have put together a very detailed review of Nokia’s flagship device the N97.
There’s much more to like about the N97 than to dislike, the camera, build quality and built-in (and expandable) storage are major pluses. Along with the new widget-oriented home screen. As a media player, you also can’t really fault the N97, and the novel form factor (35 degree tilt) is something pretty special. On the other hand, the keyboard isn’t going to win you any prizes in the speed typing department, and the resistive screen maybe an issue for some, especially if you’re coming from an iPhone. Likewise, the web browser needs improvement, although I expect third-party browsers, such as SkyFire, Opera Mini and Bolt, to make their way over to S60 5th Edition fairly soon
